Subject: RE: A Mockery (BBC Folk Awards 2009)
Anyone got an application form for this "Inner Folk Circle"?
Does one get to wear an apron, and do peculiar things with goats? I hope so. (I likes goats me!).
Seriously I'm with Mr Beer.
And for the prolier than thou crowd. Just listen (and I mean LISTEN) to the words of Chris Woods winning song. A better and restrained anti middle-class rant, I've yet to hear.
I've never heard of Al or NFA. Doesn't mean they're bad or anything like that. They just haven't fallen into my Radar!
Also haven't heard of most of the Brit winners of the Grammys. Some 21 year old girl, was one. can't remember her name, or her song. But she won an award as the best newcomer. Good for her. Doubt if I'll be rushing out to HMV though.
All in all, The FA is what it is. Not perfect, but better than nothing.
Most working people have Christmas parties. This is the Folk version. Whats wrong with that?
